Learn more →If a building in Crawley needs frameless fire-rated glazing, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.

Frameless fire-rated glazing is a glass wall where panes meet edge to edge with a tested sealant joint instead of vertical frames, held in discreet head and base channels. It gives an almost uninterrupted view while still being tested to resist fire.
We cover Crawley and the surrounding postcode districts, including RH11, RH10. Nearby towns we also serve include Horley, Horsham, East Grinstead. Crawley is the largest town in our West Sussex coverage.
Frameless glass is exposed during the build. We plan protection until other trades finish.
The sealant, joint width and any interlayer in the joint come from the test. Generic silicone in a fire glass joint is not acceptable.
True frameless fire doors are rare; most frameless walls use a slim framed door within the run. We show you the options on drawings.
Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.
Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.
We can phase work in Crawley around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.

Survey timing in Crawley depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
